The way I'm using crossposting is to post old posts of mine to a few new communities I would like to start.
Yeah that makes sense. If you wrote a lot of good and relevant stuff in your early days where visibility was low, that could work as a use case.
I'm also thinking though, why not revamp the post entirely, and think that's the way I'd do things.
I do think revamping the post entirely is better. But at least it is a semi-legitimate way to post recycle for those who don't care. It's pretty easy to notice and skip over. If you autovote someone and find them doing it a lot, just stop autovoting that account.
The fact that a revamped post looks far better makes me side more towards doing that and using the cross-post feature to advertise good stuff produced by someone else.

That's basically what #showcase-sunday is. Breathing new life into old work, somehow. We all had that slow start.
Ah yes, I should have tied these together myself. Another coffee could be due :)
